there is no reason something like this shouldnt be built in

Re: No need for gnom

Actually, I feel this is exactly the sort of thing that shouldn't be built in. Having a quick, simple and easy to access way to simply copy and paste is with as few clicks/keyboard shortcuts as possible is more important than this sort of advanced feature in a standard install. Of course, that doesn't make it a bad idea for glipper integration, but I don't think it should be forced on all users. If anything, it could be a preference that's off by default, but that's not really the Gnome philosophy.

i think it would be really neat to have "multiple clipboards" based on different keybindings. for instance, you could press Ctrl+C+1 to copy item A, and Ctrl+C+2 to copy item B. then you could paste the items with Ctrl+V+1 and Ctrl+V+2 and so on.

this would be most helpful when you needed to be able to paste multiple things repetitively.
